Role of Therapy in Achieving Home Health Outcomes

Date: Tuesday, November 15, 2011

Time: 10 am PT/12 pm CT/1 pm ET

Presented by: Vicki D. Gines, PT, DPT, COS-C, Rehabilitation Supervisor, North Kansas City Hospital – Home Health

It has been a year since home health outcomes have been publicly reported due to the changes in OASIS.  It’s time again for the outcomes of our work to be reported on Home Health Compare.  This webinar will assist the therapist in understanding the impact their documentation has on quality patient outcomes and how to document to accurately portray the impact of that care.

After attending this webinar, the participant will be able to:

  • State how OASIS scoring can inform their evaluation strategies
  • State five functional tests used in Home Care to define the patient’s specific impairments and further support OASIS scoring
  • Identify intervention strategies to improve the impairments that impact D/C OASIS scores
  • State how cognition impacts functional outcomes in home care and how this changes strategies for intervention

Getting More From Your Planning

More listening = better results.

Some forget the most important initial step to planning…listening to other thought leaders. Kick off your planning for 2012 and beyond by starting the discussion with stakeholders of your organization. Brainstorm with  your leadership team and your board what success will look like in 2020 for your organization given the trends you’ve identified and the likely changes in your strategic environment. Poll your colleagues, locally and nationally, what strategies they are implementing and why. Meet with leadership of health systems, hospitals, and physician groups; take responsibility for leading robust discussions to develop initiatives that will be beneficial for all those involved in the conversation.
